Haven't played around with the traffic shaping on pf sense but I presume
you are balancing the speed between the various implementations of pf
sense and not on a per client basis?!
As that would explain it as the clients can still take all bandwidth
regardless just when these clients are over multiple pf sense machines
you would notice it.
If it is the other way around I wouldn't have an idea :)

I installed pfsense on a server for a WISP. The LAN

On the WAN side is a cross-over cable connected to a Cisco
2500 series router with does absolutely nothing except to
provide a serial port for the T1 connection.
Every other day, the ISP are calling me to tell me that
there is some problem with pfsense. And every day I explain
to them, that there are multiple deployments of pfsense, and
run almost flawlessly.
I am not a networking person, just your average Unix Jedi.
Can someone give me some indicators on how use the tools on
pfsense to see where I can put my fingers on the real
problems? For instance, I have great down speed, but up speed
goes out at a crawl? Some clients are connected and others
are not? Although I have traffic shaping in place, there are
still problems where a customer snatches all of the
bandwidth when downloading, leaving other clients
crawling...
Any pointers would be greatly appreciated!
